“Huh, were you in like a rock band or something? You totally have the look for it” she teased, tapping her fingers on the counter. “In that case I definitely need to know where that is. Mia is fine with parks and stuff like that, but Bobo really needs more activity. I promise I won’t tell anyone” she signed a cross over her chest, turning to the barista. “Hmm…Vanilla Latte is my favorite, definitely. But since you mentioned chocolate, now I’m considering Mocha. Tough choice, tough choice” she clicked her tongue, looking behind the barista to see other options. Not wanting to hold off the line, she shook her head, smiling at the barista as she ordered a large Vanilla Latte. “Are you heading out for working after this?”

“No... no I just. Played my music... loudly.” he said shaking his head a little bit. “Yeah totally. If you want we can go some time... or I can try to draw it out. Just so you don’t get lost in the woods or something. I’d feel terrible if you did.” he chuckled a little. Wes smiled and chuckled a little, ordering a regular coffee with a little milk, stepping in to pay for hers as well, just trying to be nice. “Uh... Maybe. I mean I work from home so if I actually work is up for debate but I don’t really have anything else planned so... What about you? Heading to the bakery?”

“How come? Did someone made fun of you when you were little, or just…you know, too self-conscious about your abilities?” she cocked her head, genuinely curious. To her, singing –even bad singing– was one of the entertaining things. “Actually, hot chocolate doesn’t sound bad. I can’t believe I forgot about it. Hot chocolate won’t keep me up, though. I don’t think” she considered briefly. Hot chocolate was definitely the superior replacement of coffee. “Where are you guys hiking? You’d think I know all the places to take my dogs out, but apparently–” she trailed off, approaching the counter. When they arrived to the front, she looked up at Wes, giving him a smirk. “Pick your poison.”

“Nah. I just... got yelled at a lot for loud music and making a lot of noise and stuff. ” he said shaking his head. “Yeah. Hot chocolate is really great. Sometimes it’s too sweet though.” he shrugged. Wes normally didn’t drink a lot of sweet, but was known to on occasion. “Yeah. It’s a back trail. Not a lot of people, so I feel comfortable letting her off leash without worrying about other dogs. But yeah. I get far off the normal trails sometimes.” he shrugged a little. He looked up at the sign. “Nah nah. Ladies first.” he said with a chuckle, still not having decided what he was gonna get.

“That’s when you have the most fun! in my opinion. When you know you’re really terrible but you just don’t care what other people think” she explained with a nod. “Trust me, I don’t usually brag about things I’m good at, but this is definitely something I take seriously.” She  shook her head, letting out a chuckle “What else are we supposed to drink in the morning though, tea? that’s just silly. Sure thing, I don’t mind the company” she smiled at him, walking inside the shop. She waited on the line, taking that moment to decide on her drink for the day. “How’s your dog, by the way?”

“Oh. I care though. I definitely care. I barely even sing when I’m home alone.” he laughed a little. “But now that you’ve said you’re good I wanna hear you.” Wes shook his head as well, “Hot chocolate maybe. And okay yeah.” he smiled back at her waiting in line next to her. “She’s good. She’s handful still, but we found a really good hike and she’s always down for running around in the woods off leash.” he grinned.

“Everyone’s a bit of a singer, in my opinion. Even if it’s in the shower. Or on the street. You weren’t half bad actually. I’m kind of a singer myself. Mostly karaoke though, that’s where I truly shine” she rambled, as the light finally changed to green. “Ah yes, food is a pretty universal love. Still, I think he has a bit of a weird obsession” she walked by his side for a moment. “Tell me about it. Lately my brain’s been taking me through some crazy dreams. It’s time to go easy on the coffee, maybe” she joked, even though there was some truth behind her words. “I’m good, heading for my morning coffee, what about you?”

“Maybe. I’m not a good one, though. I’m slightly tone def. Though I’d definitely like to hear you sing karaoke.” he chuckled. “It definitely is. I had to go to the gym because of it. If I’m going to the gym to be able to eat more food, you know I’m committed to it.” he joked a bit more, walking next to her. “True. Probably not the best idea to be drinking all that caffeine. I’m actually heading to get coffee too. So if... you know you want to sit with me or... something.”

She was on her way to get her coffee like every morning when she stopped at a red light. She realized Wes was humming a tune beside her, and she let out a chuckle. “You’re not the first, actually. I have a friend who’s always humming. I think he wishes he could be a singer. He also hums when he eats, but that weird. He loves food” she furrowed her eyebrows, realizing she was rambling “Anyway, any particular reason your in a humming mood?”

Wes chuckled a bit. “Ah. No. Not me. I am not a singer. Though good for your friend. He should definitely try singing actually. Maybe not while eating but yeah. Who doesn’t love food? I know I do.” he said shaking his head. “Ah just a weird dream. It made me just... feel good I guess. So yeah. How are you?”

Chuck’s eyes widened for a brief moment, before a confused, lilted smile curved onto his lips. “Ah, lil’ bit more than that I think. But I’m not askin’ for the whole thing, ‘course, just anything ya’ can spare,” Quietly thanking the male, he stilled just as he was depositing the coins in his jacket pocket. “Oh, yeah, fine. Why? Somethin’ on my face, or…?” he trailed off, even miming swiping off his cheeks - although, maybe he had gotten a bit of ink or something on them from earlier?

Wes shrugged a little. He’d been at a few low points at his life, and there had been times he couldn’t afford the bus and ended up walking to a construction sight and walking back after working a full day. He wished someone would just hand him bus fare so he could relax on the bus and let his feet rest. “Don’t worry about it. Then you can just go an ask for more change the next time you need fare.” he laughed a little. “Not... well. I mean a little bit. Kinda all over the place honestly. But just a missing wallet. Just wanted to make sure you weren’t mugged or something.” he shrugged.

A small package is sat in front of Wes’s door, with this and a note:

If you’re here, who’s running heaven? Happy Valentine’s Day! I wanted to show you how much I appreciate your friendship, and I hope you have a super great day full of love and chocolate (do you like chocolate? I hope you do), flowers (unless you're allergic?), and fluffy teddy bears. Those are always great!

- Phoebe

“Hey–

Listen, I don’t usually do this but uh, kinda lost my wallet… you got a couple coins to spare? I just need a little change for the bus, nothin’ else,” Besides a car, a new set of clothes, hell maybe a place to sleep that wasn’t a park bench - but, for now, he’d settle with getting a ride back to the park he’d recently been calling ‘home sweet home’.

[wesriely-blog]

“Uh. Sure. What’s the bus fare now? Didn’t they raise it twenty five cents or something? Here.” he said handing him a full fair. “Are you alright?” he said tilting his head a bit.

“I don’t think I’ve heard of it” she admitted with a shrug. “My music knowledge is pretty limited to Britney Spears and various other icons of pop so it’s probably not surprising that I don’t. If you want to hum a Britney song though, I’d be happy to join in” she joked, giggling happily. “That’s great! I could do with one of those dreams, I haven’t been able to remember a dream of mine in a long time. It’s very sad.”

“It’s by Yellowcard. Not one of their super popular songs. Kinda from the album after their good one.” he laughed a bit. “I’ll definitely keep that in mind for some singing sessions.” he joked back. “I mean... it was a weird one that I just... woke up and felt better about being me. I don’t know, like a bad dream that made me happy that it was just a dream.”

“The local taco place put out a promotion of free tacos for couples willing to kiss in front of them. Does that sound a bit weird and voyeuristic to anyone else? … but also free tacos. So I think the point I’m trying to make here is: you and me, free taco date on Valentine’s Day. You in? I’ll even take this ring off if that helps. Free taco beats plastic ring any day.”

[wesriely-blog]

Wes looked up to see who was talking to him and laughed. “So you’re fine with me kissing you for tacos, but I’m horrible because I’m not interested in you but would actually kiss you for a taco. You are a confusing fucking person.”

“Actually, I’m not quite worried about what I’m currently seeing as I’m about how I will erase this image from my head later.” She tried not to laugh, but turns out it’s really hard to be keep a straight face when this guy is around. Whatever. As long as she could keep her judging expression for another minute or so, he would leave and she would be able to do the… zero things she was doing before he talked to her.

He made a bit of a face. ‘Or you can take out your camera and film it so you can relive this moment forever and ever.” he said, smiling at her. He was in too good of a mood to care about some random girl’s judgement. For all he knew he’d never even see her again.

Lucy had been wandering around time for quite some time when she spotted Wes ahead of her. Making her way over, she stopped beside him to listen to his humming before she spoke. “No, no… I mean, yes. Yes, I have. Sorry. I was just trying to figure out what song you were humming so that I could join in” she admitted, laughing softly. “You seem like you’re in a good mood, though. Are you having a good day?”

“It’s a song called Dear Bobbie?” he said shaking his head a bit. “Yeah. I’m in a pretty good mood. Just like... life you know? I don’t know really. Just a decent dream, woke up in a good mood I guess.”

levichill:

“Oh.” The straightforward answer caught Levi off guard for a moment, staring at Wes with parted lips. “Right, sorry. What is it then?” He quirked an eyebrow, not minding the situation at all. Levi had thrown himself into enough discomfort time and time again that it barely affected him, now. 

“Just a good day. I guess. But now that you reminded me of that...” he said turning it into a bit of a joke.

“Apparently so. If you feel like breaking out into any more songs I’m not about to stop you,” she joked, grinning at him. “Yes! Have I already told you about it? I get a little too excited. She’s my baby of about a year and I’m not really over i yet. It’s been a weird week all around but I think I won’t be able to get anything done without a nap.”

“I’m good for now. I’ll let you know if I ever do get in a singing mood, you know so you can prepare and be there for the moment.” Wes shook his head a bit. “I guess? Or I saw it or something. Or Levi told me? I don’t really know or remember. But don’t worry. I totally got that way with my dog. I’m still that way with my dog. Like I’m a crazy dog owner. I will show you pictures and videos without any request for them.” he joked. “Yeah. No machinery. That’s my goal. I’ll probably just sketch or something or I will lose a hand.”

chrisstafford:

“I didn’t think you’d start singing it in the middle of public so you caught me just a little bit by surprise,” she said with a laugh, nodding her head in agreement with his words. “You too? I know I’ve been working on my bike all week but I feel like I’ve been swamped doing other stuff instead.”

“You highly underestimate how good I’m feeling today.” he joked. “Right your.... BMW R1200 right? Yeah. It’s a weird week for me. I need to get at least something done before I slack off a bit more.” he shook his head.

chrisstafford:

“That’s the one,” Chris said with both excitement and amusement as he started singing, grinning at him. “It’s one of those far too annoyingly catchy tunes that you just can’t get out of your head. Otherwise I’d be pulling it up on my phone for you to listen to… but I don’t want to put us both through that,” she joked. “That’s a fair point and why I have the day off today. One that I plan to spend napping as much as possible.”

Wes shook his head. “You are far too excited over this song. I’m good though. I’d rather not be singing Taylor Swift for the rest of the night.” he laughed a bit. “Lucky. I feel like I’m behind on my work. I need to at least get some of my work done today.”

chrisstafford:

“Not even Shake It Off? I thought that was an earworm that no one could escape,” she joked, shaking her head. “I’ll give you some time but I do expect a Taylor song out of you one of these days,” she playfully warned, wagging a finger at him. “You’re telling me. I feel like I needed such a nap right after I woke up.”

“Shake it off? Is that the I stay out to late. la la bla bla blaa. That’s what people sayyyy mmm mm. That’s what people saayy. Mmmm mmm Shake it off.” he sang kinda off because he doesn’t quite remember the song. “Well you know what they say about using heavy machinery while tired. I think we both shouldn’t be working today.” he joked a bit.
